About This Piece

George Peters’ and Melanie Walkers’ artworks at the Family Crisis Center enhance the entry areas in such a way as to create a welcoming and calming influence on the children that are brought to the Center. “Color Wind” adds colorful icons to the surrounding gated entry in the form of wind vane pennants. These are visible to children approaching the facility from both directions of the corner entry. Instead of formidable gates, they see colorful simple shapes on the fence pillars moving in the wind.
